The Master Parts Price File help system has been upgraded. Please refer to the new topic on the standard Master Price File for information on non-GM specific Master Price File topics.
To display the GM Vauxhall Master Parts Price File form:
On the GENERAL MOTORS OPERATIONS MENU select the Parts price file menu option and click OK.
The MASTER PARTS PRICE FILE MENU is displayed.
Select the Master price file option and click OK.
The GM Vauxhall Master Parts Price File form is displayed.
Note: The principal GM-specific fields are documented here. For non GM-specific fields, please see the standard Master Price File documentation.
Service indicator: GM has introduced a new concept called the service indicator, which flags whether or not given parts are still maintained by GM. The process reads the version date (Verdate) from the GE.MS.pfupa table. If that date is not equal to today’s date, then the process stops here. If the date is equal to today’s date, then it reads every record in the price file. If the VERSION field equals .ms_ge_pfupa_VERSION$ then the Service indicator field on the price file record is set to Y, otherwise it is set to N. This process is run automatically before the Automatic price file update process finishes.
